First start-up of the chiller

Operating manual LC 340.01-A.3.5/6 

 

Current revision status: Apr 4, 2019 

 

Checking rotation of the fan 

– sheet of paper must be sucked 

 

ADVICE: 

Always ensure that the pumps turn in the proper direction. If direction of 
rotation is wrong, the electrical connection needs to be corrected. 

In  case  of  wrong  rotation,  disconnect  the  chiller  via  main  switch  using 
lock-out/tag-out  procedures  and  unplug  the  chiller  from  voltage  supply. 
Phases  L1  and  L2  have  to  be  reversed  by  and  an  authorized  skilled 
worker. 

 

5.11  Ventilating the pump 

Immersion pumps are self cooling. Ventilating the pump is not necessary. 

 

ADVICE: 

During  the  initial  start  up  of  the chiller, the pipes and the laser modules 
will begin filling with water. This will cause the water level to fall. 

Make  sure,  that  water  according  item  5.6  is  available  so  that  you  can 
refill the tank when necessary. 

The water level inside the tank will be controlled by level indicators. If the 
water level is too low, the chiller will be switched off.
